The good weather brings activity. The Old Farmer does some arc welding to the underside of the venerable Mercedes. Finished, he wanders over for a chat . '' Off to see a lady in Lyons " he informs us. He then smiles and taps the right side of his nose three times with his middle finger.
The German billionaires must be about to arrive. A small army of workmen beavering away on the chateau until dark. Whoever is the last to leave forgets to turn off the lights. Every window in the castle left illuminated all night. Quite a festive sight.
For Bob and Sophie life is good. There is excitement everywhere. Birds in the hedge, deer on the other side of the fence, pilgrims on the lane, plants to be excavated. They have now effectively colonized the wooden table in the garden. Bob sits at one end facing the house. Sophie reclines at the other. From this vantage point nothing that goes on in the village can escape their attention. We rediscover that eternal truth - when you have dogs in the house you laugh all day.

You weren't thinking of using that garden table for anything else were you?
The font has tried to use it for studying. The problem is Bob likes to devour books. Literally.
At least the billionaires can afford the light bill.
Sounds like the PON table is a fantastic surveillance post.
XXXOOO Bella & Roxy
On the topic of Astrobiology (and I do not mean astrology!) I have heard it described as the science with no subject matter. A fascinating area for informed speculative research nonetheless. I am going to look out the books recommended by 'anonymous' in your last post.
Same reaction re the table as Bouncing Bertie's.
I find myself wondering if the German grocery billionaire is Mr. Aldi's, which I have recently discovered is the parent company of Trader Joe's. If so, I probably own at least several square inches of his garage.
Do you laugh when they 'eat' books, posts, garden flowers?? I know...they have such cute faces, you can't help but chuckle !!
Yes we do. Soon enough young dogs turn into old dogs. All you can do is well enjoy the mayhem while it lasts.
Books can be bought again. One year old canine mischief is a rarer commodity.
and we laugh with you. in total abandonment and LOVE! xo
Absolutely love your reply to
"myboyzach". Must grab and savor every moment.
The Rickety Old Farmhouse has the PERFECT security surveillance duo on the job....what more could you ask for?
They are living and experiencing every day as only they know how.
The Old Farmer is off again on another adventure...I do so love him, and it appears a lady in Lyons loves him too.
That table is now theirs for grooming and relaxing and security detail....tell the Font to forget about sharing it with them in this lifetime or the next!!!
We were chuckling after the 3rd bath of the day yesterday. The terror--oops terrier found something dead and rolled in it. We finally found what it was!!! Even smelly he make us laugh !!!
Bob looks very distinguished these days.
